Johnny - GUI for John the Ripper v1.1.1

Johnny is a GUI for John the Ripper. It was proposed by Shinnok. You could look onto original version onJohn the Ripper GUI sketches page.

Release 1.1

After small fixes release version is 1.1.2.

This Johnny release is oriented onto core john. It was tested with john 1.7.9. Though all versions should work, even jumbo. All basic things work well:

1. export of cracked passwords through clipboard,
2. export works with office suits (tested with LibreOffice Calc),
3. user could start, pause and resume attack (though only one session is allowed globally),
4. all attack related options work,
5. all input file formats are supported (pure hashes, pwdump, passwd, mixed),
6. “smart” default options,
7. accurate output of cracked passwords,
8. smooth work, i.e. no lags,
9. config is stored in .conf file (~/.john/johnny.conf),
10. nice error messages and other user friendly things,
11. many minor fixes to polish ui.

Release 1

The first release is prepared to take more opinions from real users. This release includes all things from development release plus nice tabbed panel for mode selection and some additional clean-ups. Basic functionality is supposed to work: password could be loaded from file and cracked with different options.
